Chef Wanted – Private Dining & Events Venue (London)


Full-Time | 35+ Hours per Week | Flexible Schedule | Immediate Start


We are seeking a talented and passionate Chef to join our small, dynamic team at our unique private dining and events venue. You’ll play a key role in delivering high-quality, seasonal food for a wide range of events – from intimate private dinners to large-scale canapé receptions.


About the Role:


This is a hands-on, creative role ideal for a chef who thrives in an ever-changing environment. We host:


Private dining events (20–55 guests) for corporate functions, weddings, and special celebrations.


Catering for up to 500 guests including canapés, bowl food, and bespoke event menus.


A Friday & Saturday sophisticated bar menu that complements our cocktail service – think modern hotel lobby-style , vibrant flavours and small plates that are elegant and trending influences from the nightlife scene.


You'll be working alongside one other chef and a kitchen porter. You must be confident running a section, managing prep and service, and contributing ideas to keep the menu exciting and aligned with current food trends.


What We’re Looking For:


Experienced chef with a background in events, fine dining, or upscale bar food.


Confident creating beautiful, flavourful dishes with a focus on seasonality, presentation, and innovation.


Comfortable with a flexible schedule — evenings and weekends are part of the role.


Strong organisational skills and ability to communicate clearly with the team and front-of-house.


Capable of managing tastings, meeting dietary requirements, and adapting menus for specific client needs.


Willing to work independently and also as part of a close-knit team.


What We Offer:


35 hours/week contract with flexibility to extend hours during peak periods.


Opportunity to cook across a range of styles and formats – from tasting menus to large-scale events.


Creative input on menus and food presentation.


A supportive, collaborative environment focused on quality and guest experience.


Interested?


If you’re a creative, reliable chef who enjoys variety and delivering exceptional food in a beautiful setting, we’d love to hear from you.
